problem burning hole in piston
what could it be? just rebuilt this engine everything is new in it. one cyl. keeps burning hole inpiston after ten minutes of riding.set carbs by specs. is it sucking air from crank seals or could it be the carbs?

It could be either. Did you rebuild the carbs? Did you rebuild the bottom end or just install a piston? How about some history on the ski. Make model. Has it ever run good how long have you owned it etc:

Block off the Intake manifold and exhaust apply 9-10 psi thru the pulse fitting and it should hold for 5-8 min.

Which piston? It could be you missed the boat. Everybody is doing a fuel pump upgrade on these.

matt, Go back and do it ALL.
All new hoses, don't forget the ones in the tank (if applicable)
New fuel valve
New Fuel Pump (stand alone), I prefer the triple outlet or high volume as that of a 96 SLX780.
Clean the carbs, filters especially.
Like beer stated check the crank index and of course check for air leaks.
